National Health and Disease Human Brain Tissue Resource Center

The National Human Brain Tissue Bank for Health and Disease (the Brain Bank) was built to meet the needs of scientific research by integrating experts and forces from neuroscience, human anatomy, pathology and other related disciplines. The Brain Bank collects and stores post-mortem brain tissue donated by patients with various neuropsychiatric disorders and normal controls, as well as their life histories, in accordance with international standards, and provides a detailed and accurate neuropathological diagnosis of these brain tissue samples (also known as the "final diagnosis"). The aim is to discover and elucidate the causes of human neuropsychiatric diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, depression, schizophrenia and other human diseases, and to provide scientists with the most direct and effective means of finding the relevant pathogenesis and establishing effective treatments. The National Brain Tissue Resource for Health and Disease The goal of the National Human Brain Tissue Repository for Health and Disease is to integrate collection, diagnosis, storage and utilisation, and to build a first-class human resource preservation infrastructure in China that is in line with international standards and provides support for neuroscience research. In 2020, the National Brain Bank has established three branches of the National Brain Bank in Hefei, Anhui, Nanjing, Jiangsu, and Shanghai. major cities.

国家健康与疾病人类脑组织银行（以下简称脑库）旨在满足科学研究的需求，通过整合神经科学、人体解剖学、病理学及其他相关学科的专业力量而构建。脑库依照国际标准，收集并储存来自患有各种神经精神疾病及正常对照者的尸体脑组织，以及他们的生平经历，并提供详尽而精确的神经病理学诊断（亦称最终诊断）。其目标是揭示并阐明诸如阿尔茨海默病、帕金森病、抑郁症、精神分裂症等人类神经精神疾病的成因，并为科学家提供寻找相关发病机制和确立有效治疗的最直接、最有效的方法。国家健康与疾病脑组织资源旨在整合收集、诊断、储存与利用，构建符合国际标准、支持神经科学研究的一流人力资源保存基础设施。至2020年，国家脑库已在安徽合肥、江苏南京和上海等主要城市设立了三个分支机构。
